2. Be critical of yourself

Try and be as honest as you can about your past performance. For example how well did you handle opportunities and challenges? Could you have done things better or differently?

What I like about the tool is that you can identify development opportunities and it will help you progress to the next level. For me, the tool helps me focus on this goal.

3. Talk to your team

Once you have completed the questionnaire you need to review and discuss the responses with team members. Plan time for this.

When you have agreed the learning you can complete a development plan and you can access examples on Civil Service Learning.

And finally don’t forget it’s about your own development as a manager as well as your teams! It is so easy to forget but we need to be the best we can be to enable us to support our teams. Things are changing all the time and so keep reviewing too!

There is much more on Civil Service Learning to support you. Log on. Get exploring and you’ll be away!
